Baby steps...

You know it is very hard to get back into the swing of things when you've been laying around doing nothing for awhile! To get the ol'creative self back on track, I've had to start off slow just to get going~ I made this little blanket for my grandaughter using flannel leopard fabric and a fuzzy pink fabric on the reverse.I stitched some gro-grain black ribbon (into the edges seam stitch) about 4 inches down from each corner. Once it was completed I added some of those plastic linky rings.... which will hold all my little love-bugs toys within easy reach while she is sitting in her carseat. I am going to be making a few more of these.... so easy and very practical!

I am a mixed media artist. I love to sew, embroider, crochet and create things using vintage objects. I love: old classic cars, vintage fabrics, old buttons, cats, shabby chic furniture & linens.... chewing gum, diet pepsi, sneakers, chocolate and gardening~ I like to rummage through thrift stores, yard sales, estate sales and the occasional curbside trash pile. I don't mind getting dirty for treasures! I like to repurpose found objects throughout my home and garden.
